Mark Andrews Brings In Two Passes For 31 Yards
Baltimore Ravens tight end Mark Andrews caught two of four targets for 31 yards in Sunday's victory over the Buccaneers.

With the Ravens still […]
Willie Snead Leads Ravens In Receptions Again
Baltimore Ravens wide receiver Willie Snead brought in five of six targets for 58 yards in Sunday's (20-12) victory over the Buccaneers.

Chris Moore Reaches End Zone For First Time This Season
Baltimore Ravens wide receiver Chris Moore hauled in his lone target for a five-yard touchdown in Sunday's (20-12) victory over the Buccaneers.

Kenneth Dixon Has Solid Performance
Baltimore Ravens running back Kenneth Dixon garnered 48 yards on 11 carries to go along with one reception for two yards in Sunday's (20-12) victory over the Buccaneers.

Lamar Jackson Doesn't Throw An Interception For Third Straight Game

Joe Flacco Active In Week 15
Baltimore Ravens quarterback Joe Flacco (hip) is active in Week 15 against the Buccaneers.

Running back Ty Montgomery is also a healthy scratch for […]

Flex Heroes and Zeroes - Week 15 Fantasy Football Picks
I'll keep it short and sweet here - you need to win and I want you to win. That's where the ol' gut comes in. See, there are many reasons to think Cousins won't throw the ball very often this week, Edwards will see a reduced workload, McKenzie has too low a ceiling to start […]

Crucial Pivots for Fantasy Football Week 15
Us fantasy folks have a mantra that gets repeated ad nauseam throughout the season. "Start your studs" is the standard cliché you hear when it comes to making obvious lineup decisions.

Spoiler Alert! Favorable Matchups to Avoid
Lucas. The Replacements. Me, Myself and Irene. Hollywood is full of underdogs who finally had enough and made it known, "Don’t test me!"

Joe Flacco Questionable For Week 15
Baltimore Ravens quarterback Joe Flacco (hip) practiced in full all week but is questionable for Week 15 against the Buccaneers.

Trusting Derrick Henry (or Not) in Fantasy Playoffs
Few things give me true pleasure in watching the game of football like watching a running back rip off a long run. Derrick Henry did just that in Week 14, running for 99 yards against the Jacksonville Jaguars. He didn't stop there, posting a memorable 238 yards and four touchdowns on the day. That's the stuff of […]
Lamar Jackson To Start Over Joe Flacco
Baltimore Ravens head coach John Harbaugh said that rookie quarterback Lamar Jackson will start in Week 15 against the Buccaneers, while Joe Flacco (hip) will return and back the rookie up.
